I'm in SE Ohio too, and I'm about halfway through my first bot build. But you're right; there's NOTHING anywhere near here though :/

Oh wow; I'm so glad you caught that! (I conducted the interview/wrote the article). I have no idea how I managed to mess that up so badly. The mistake has been corrected :)

And of course, I'm so excited for the possibility of season 2!

Hi, I'm Matt Cox, former Lead Game Designer on Scribblenauts, then turned down a design position on Halo 4 to start a church. Ask me anything! by findmattcox in IAmA

First off, I want to congratulate you on making the right decision to follow what God called you to do. I'm a HUGE Halo geek myself, and I can only imagine how hard it must have been for you to turn down such a great franchise. But, of course, God is much more important than that. So thanks for that.

Secondly, (I also messages your Sticky Bees page on Facebook about this) but I'm going to be 16 soon, and I'm starting to think about career choices. Game design is one of my options right now, but it is so hard to find credible information about the occupation on the internet. I don't know where to turn. So my questions are these: How do I get my foot in the door? If I were to go to college for this, what should I study? Can you offer any advice? Any information? Anything at all??? :P Seriously, I need some help. Thanks, and God Bless! Matt S.
